Here's another URL that does odd things on my system:

   Explorer.AssocProtocol.search-ms://test

I see the same thing as well.

For kicks, I reproduced it here as well:

Subject: [funsec] Odd behaviour in Vista?

Hi,

Can folks who are running Vista and IE7, try typing in this URL in the
IE7
address bar to see what happens:

    ie.http://test

On my computer, IE7 goes into a loop opening and closing windows.  I'm
wondering if this is a problem just with my Vista install or something
more.

Thanks,
Richard
